Never Would I Ever

Never Would I Ever - Chapter 2

I have another story in mind involving a murder at a High School, taking place in-between "A Murder on Campus" and "Rorschach Reaper" but I dunno if i'll post it as a reader insert or at all. Anyway, enjoy chapter 2!

--------------------------------------------------------

 Jones and I were interrogating Tess in the interrogation room. Everything was going normal until Tess took a pendulum out. She began to wave it in his face and began saying weird things like:

"But you wouldn't know about being brilliant, would you, Officer Jones? (Your Rank) (Y/N)'s dog, always following, always praising, always failing...It's unbearable, isn't it?"

"Living in (Your Rank) (Y/N)'s shadow, being endlessly scolded for failing to meet their standards... So much frustration, Officer Jones...It has to stop, hasn't it? It can't go on forever, it has to stop now. Now and forever. And there's only one thing to do. The right thing."

Then Jones proceeded to say pretty clearly;

"The right... thing... to do..."

That's when Jones got up and took his gun out. I tried talking him out of it, giving Ramirez time to run in and knock him out with a frying pan before he could pull the trigger.

Once we knew he was out cold and Ramirez grabbed his gun, Tess became angry, stating how my death, her masterpiece, was ruined.

We decided it was best to stop the interrogation there and lock her up in a holding cell until the trial. We also double checked and made sure she didn't have anything, like another pendulum, on her so she couldn't hurt anyone again.

Afterwards, we went back and checked on Jones. Now knowing that Tess hypnotized the murderers of Rani Goshwalla, Lisa Edwards, and Aaliyah Banks into doing what they did. And attempted to do the same with Jones by manipulating him into killing me.

Fortunately, Ramirez was there to save us both.

Jones mouth was open in shock. He couldn't believe what he had read. It was definitely his partner's handwriting and a obvious statement about what happened.

"No. There is no way I did that...I could never do that to my partner!" Jones growled quietly to himself as he put the paper and file away.

Leaving the room, he went to look for Ramirez and ask what happened during the trial since he missed it.

"Ramirez!" Jones called as he walked up to him, stopping Ramirez from entering the bullpen.

"Hey, Jones!" Ramirez stopped and turned to him.

"Can I ask you something?" Jones asked, seeming curious.

"Sure." Ramirez nodded.

"What happened during Tess Goodwin's trial?" Jones asked.

"Why do you want to know?" Ramirez questioned.

"Just curious." Jones shrugged.

"Oh...well..." Ramirez thought for a moment. "She was kind of creepy... I still shudder whenever I think about that smile she gave (Y/N) as she was led out of the courtroom."

"What did she say or do during it?" Jones asked.

"She mentioned how you were going to snap one day and kill (Y/N) and that they had to be cautious whenever they approach you." Ramirez blurted out by accident. "BUT they have nothing to worry about."

"Really?" Jones said shocked, as he felt sweat come from his forehead and he laughed nervously. "You're right. There's nothing to worry about because I would never kill them."
